This article talks about Russian and Chinese pressure on African countries and how the U.S. must prevent that at all costs. The most important reason is because Africa is well-positioned for economic and industrial expansion. The article states, "China and Russia are opportunists who will seek to destabilize and exploit the continent for their own national priorities". I definitely agree that the U.S. should prevent China and Russia from taking advantage of African countries at all costs, but also do not think the U.S. should control them either. The U.S. should help the countries grow economically, but not take advantage of them.
